We had a fantastic stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend this property. It's only about a 30-step walk to the beach, making the location perfect. The house was warm, comfortable, and well-equipped, with Chromecast for watching Wimbledon, plenty of board games, and a thoughtfully stocked kitchen with useful consumables.The shower was outstanding, with excellent water pressure and plenty of hot water. Robbie gave us a warm welcome and introduction to the property, and Annette was lovely to deal with throughout, even kindly accommodating our slightly late checkout. Their hospitality really made us feel at home.Being able to bring our dog was a huge bonus, and overall the whole experience exceeded our expectations. We'd happily stay here again!

Beautiful location and home

We had a wonderful stay, we were greeted so kindly by Robbie and Anette (Zac and Bonnie). The home was well equipped for us to make breakfast and lunch. The pull out sofa was easy to set up quickly also. So close to Snells Beach which was lovely during high tide and plenty of beaches nearby. We frequented the local bakeries and restaurants which were all conveniently nearby. Thank you for sharing your home with us.

About the host

Hosted by Anette

Host profile image
We are a 70/63 year old quite active couple. Robbie came to NZ from Scotland when he was 3 years old, i immigrated from Germany 24 years ago. We still both work part time because we love it! Other than that we both play tennis, Robbie loves his golf. I would describe Robbie as extrovert, me not so much!

Why they chose this property

We don't like cities and too many people, but our area gives us great variety of people and nature, a quiet space to enjoy life!

What makes this property unique

Very quiet, end of cul-de-sac, lots of birds noise around and not too far to walk down to beach! Beautiful other beaches and regional parks close by. Plus supermarket, cafés, restaurants, medical centre, Pharmacy
